ANN ARBOR -- At least for the moment, Michigan basketball is back atop the Big Ten, holding a half-game lead over Michigan State in the league standings.

The Wolverines pushed ahead of Michigan State on Tuesday night with a down-but-never-out win at Ohio State. The victory was timely and needed. Michigan (18-6, 10-2 Big Ten) had lost its two previous road games and appeared uneven as of late.

All and all, the Wolverines emerged from five games in 13 days with a 3-2 record.

Now with that behind, a few days off are ahead. Michigan hosts No. 21 Wisconsin (19-5, 6-5 Big Ten) on Sunday.
